Deputy PM Zahid Expected to Attend PAS Annual Congress

Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is expected to attend the Islamic Party of Malaysia's (PAS) annual congress scheduled for the coming days, signalling continued political engagement between the coalition partners.

Along with Zahid, Umno's Secretary-General Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki and senior party figures from various states are anticipated to be present at the event. State-level Umno leaders and divisional chiefs from Kelantan are also expected to participate.

The attendance reflects the ongoing political coordination between Umno and PAS, the two major components of Malaysia's ruling Perikatan Nasional coalition government. Such high-profile participation at the congress underscores the importance both parties place on their political alliance.

PAS has traditionally held its annual congress as a key gathering for party members and allied political figures to discuss party matters and reinforce coalition bonds. The event provides a platform for inter-party dialogue and coordination on matters of mutual interest.
